Gingered Stir Fry with Shrimp and Snow Peas

I don’t know about you but I am struggling to find my stride in this new year. I just haven’t been able to get back into a routine since the holidays. I think I’ve forgotten what my routine was.

It hasn’t helped that the first part of this week was insanely cold, and now the cold has been replaced by rain. I slept in this morning (talked myself out of going to the yoga class I had planned on attending) and then proceeded to spend most of the day in bed watching TV. It’s been forever since I’ve spent an afternoon laying in bed watching TV. Usually I have to be doing something while I watch TV or I get bored. But not today. I just needed to veg.

I watched an old Sandra Bullock movie on Oxygen. I just love her. And I’m insanely jealous of how well she has aged. She looks fantastic.

But let’s get to the subject of food. Stir-fries are perfect for those days your energy is not there. A little bit of prep work, and mere minutes in the pan, and voila! You have a hot, healthy, delicious meal.

This Gingered Stir-Fry features one of my favorite stir-fry combinations- shrimp and snow peas. I just love the crunch of snow peas and their sweet flavor. This stir-fry cooks up ridiculously fast, but is not lacking in flavor. The ginger and some Chinese chili garlic sauce give it plenty of flavor.

Gingered Stir Fry with Shrimp and Snow Peas

A quick and easy stir-fry with shrimp and snow peas, flavored with lots of snow peas.

Quick and easy stir-fries like this are my favorite thing to eat on busy nights. And bonus pints for it if it includes snow peas and shrimp. I love those! And sweet chili sauce?? Winner! I adore everything about this dish ;–)

I think we all need to lay around and veg some days and you definitely deserved a relaxing break:) This stir fry looks amazing Christin! I love the sound of all the ginger in here and the crunchy sweet snow peas are fantastic 🙂

Have you seen Sandra Bullock in the Proposal? I specially loved the dance scene in the woods with the grandma! I cannot seem to get enough shrimp so I find this dish irresistibly mouthwatering! Thanks so much for sharing

Christin, I’m getting ready to make some stir-fry chili shrimp tomorrow night for dinner. Was going to make shrimp & lobster sauce but I think the shrimp is a little too small for that dish so I’m trying something else. Next time, I’ll have to do snow peas like you! I was thinking the other day about how I used to dislike snow peas and now I adore the crunch and freshness. This looks sensational. Happy ‘vegging’…I know you deserve the break!
